MUNCIE, Ind. After an Indiana State Police investigation, Delaware County Prosecutor Eric Hoffman found the officer-involved shooting that killed 28-year-old Jonathan Levi Allen was legally justified.
The shooting happened March 3. Officers from the Muncie Police Department responded to a shots fired call around 1 p.m. When they arrived, they found Allen and a passenger inside a red Chevy Blazer with a license plate that was registered to a different car.
Allen told police there were guns inside the vehicle, but he refused to show his hands after officers ordered him to do so multiple times. Allen threatened to kill himself, then sped away, and officers chased him. That chase was called off after Allen got near a school and started weaving in and out of the buses at a high rate of speed.
